I would assume the first step might be to give postgresql the
init_pool.sql file, and somehow configure the programs to use this newly
created database?

I would also assume that the entire database structure is documented
in tagdb.dia?

What is meant be a "suite"?

Could somebody please povide me with a list of the
binary programs in DAK and what each one days?

I will start by extracting the comments. Some I can guess,
eg. "tea" would be for making a cup of tea, wouldn't it? ;-)

Others make no sense.

Some binaries have no real purpose, they are only there to
see if you can refrain from laughing or not (eg. see
description of update-mirrorlists).

katie doesn't seem to have a binary?
